Has it begun yet?
Gamespot's feed doesn't seem to like me

I've already come to terms with being a big geek

RobertFoster

It'll begin at 5:30PM our time Brerrabbit.

Brerrabbit

Cheers for the info; I think I just tuned in too early.

Unfortunately this makes it run a little too late for my beddy byes; t'is one am where I am and tomorrows going to be a long day...

yep should really get some sleep...

hit the old hay...

get some shut eye...


A scew this who am I trying to convince, No sleep 'till Brooklyn! (Or LA or wherever)

Hugh Hefner

I'll be tuning in. Damn I wish I was there with you (and all that junk food), rainbow kirby.


There's a Nintendo placeholder on the Gamespot feed. And some funky music.

Brerrabbit

nah the techno's getting a bit irritating now.. time for a cuppa.
In the meantime theres a featre elsewhere on gamespot where some microsoft dude responds to the sony conference, should kill a couple more minutes..

Retr0gamer

Can't believe I'll miss this for sneaky pints. The lab is full off non-gamers pressuring me by calling me a nerd I'll have to convert them with Gitaroo Man and Katamari.

Kiith

is there anywhere else that that this is being shown? cause gamespot is blocked in my college (damn techies)

honru

Don't think so. Eurogamer have live updates if that's any good to ye.

Cheers. Looking foreward to seeing wii in action (WHEN are we gonna stop sniggering at that?)

honru

Only a few more minutes now.

This is the first time I've watched the full E3 press conferences so I'm interested in seeing how Nintendo will match up to Sony.

My wish is to see more original and interesting francises from the Big N, besides the Wii demonstration.

Brerrabbit

Crikey! Quite an opulent place: "no expense spared eh?" Do you reckon the journalists have noticed that the roof, the roof, the roof is on fire?


Crikey! I said Crikey... twice!


Sorry, bit giddy

Hugh Hefner

Man I hope Reggie is the main speaker this year! I hope he takes my name. *Girlish giggle*

Apparently it's gonna start right on time. Damn, the music went down and then came back up. Dastards!

honru

Ooh... it's the Kodak Theatre. That's where the Oscars were held. Nice.

dimerocks

I dig those choons.

evad_lhorg

reggie loves his pot shots at the other companies and he is great at them. he is a brilliant public speaker tbh.

one thing is for sure. this will be a lot shorter than sonys. it always is.

Noice.


you guys getting a feed yet? still just the Ninty logo for me.

Hugh Hefner

I lost the feed for a minute but it's back now. Still just the logo though.

evad_lhorg

same but the crowd can be heard

sound_wave

just the logo here, no crowd audio...

evad_lhorg

you can hear the crowd mumbling in the background

RobertFoster

I heard the crowd for a few seconds, gone now.

They should start a chant "We Want Wii! We Want Wii!"

sound_wave

*puts head down to speakers*

....crappy, laptop speakers

dimerocks

I can hear a bit of crowd it the background. I wish i could find that reggie website right now just to hear that song.

cosgrove80

1up have a feed too if the gamespot one kicks up:

Well so far Nintendo beats Sony in the music department.

Crash

still just the ninty logo for me - i can hear buzzing in the background though......

Hugh Hefner

I don't think that's crowd noise...

Goodshape

Eurogamer's saying the theater's not full (although the Kodak is HUGE, innit?) and they're asking people to turn of the laptops.. fat chance of that I'd say.

sound_wave
